Amazing action in Dublin today!
Amazing action in Dublin today!
Idling cars emit toxic fumes which have a greater impact on children than adults. Birmingham schools to ban cars from surrounding roads. bbc.com/news/uk-englan… @JohnSodeau @GreenSchoolsIre
The Smoking Ban: brought in overnight, nationwide, because of the obvious damage it was causing smokers and passive smoking non-smokers. So let's reduce cars on our main streets to avoid harming drivers and non-drivers alike #RightSideOfHistory #AirPollution #ActiveTravel🌳🚲🚶♀️
Hi @Shane_RossTD and @RichardbrutonTD, some ideas: 👣 Encourage these 🛴 And these 🚲Segregate lanes 🚌Reduce fares 🚙Low Emission Zones 📊Increase monitoring 🌿Street trees please irishtimes.com/news/environme…
New research out by us today: ‘Pollution cuts Birmingham children's life expectancy by seven months' @BBCNews also covered by @guardian @Independent @Telegraph @newscientist @airqualitynews bbc.com/news/uk-englan…
Nitrogen Dioxide levels in Dublin, due to traffic, pose a public health risk. See report compiled by EPA Air Quality team at link below. @EPAIreland @Dept_CCAE @AsthmaIreland @DubCityCouncil @sdublincoco epa.ie/newsandevents/…
Nitrogen dioxide only monitored at 2 locations in Cork. UCC campus and South Link Road. Roadside monitoring is desperately needed in Cork city. Why don't Cork city council get things moving? That’s what @johnwenger9 and @JohnSodeau think m.independent.ie/irish-news/dan…
Here’s an idea being rolled out in Jersey island as to how everyone can help monitor their local air.....as long as the devices are validated and reliable. jerseyeveningpost.com/news/2019/07/0…
The EU Court of Justice has ruled that citizens can go to court to challenge how authorities are monitoring pollution. Compliance with air pollution limits must be assessed at monitoring stations where exposure to pollution is the greatest, not the average clientearth.org/clean-air-clos…
Here’s a one stop shop for the public to read about air pollution and what they can do about it themselves. The Clean Air Hub | Clean Air Day cleanairday.org.uk/pages/category…
Living next to a busy road junction is equivalent to if someone was smoking 5 to 10 cigarettes in the house. We currently have toxic air and we've got to do something about it as quickly as possible. - Professor Jonathan Grigg, The Royal London Hospital #Dispatches
Severe consequences for areas not covered by smoky coal ban – expert (via @IrishTimes) irishtimes.com/news/ireland/i…
5️⃣ reasons to #BeatAirPollution: 1. Polluted air is creating a health emergency 2. Children are most at risk 3. Pollution & poverty go hand in hand 4. The cheaper the fuels, the higher the costs 5. The right to clean air is a human right bit.ly/2HTnmV2
Time for #CleanAir action! Sign the bill for smoky coal ban irishtimes.com/news/environme… #WakeUpRichard
Cork 96FM @OpinionLine96 @deshocks @pjcoogan Interview between 10 and 11 tomorrow about Cork air pollution exceedances. Ban smoky coal burning everywhere @Dept_CCAE @RichardbrutonTD. Start on World Environment Day that is 5th June. #BeatAirPollution

New research out by us today: ‘Pollution cuts Birmingham children's life expectancy by seven months' @BBCNews also covered by @guardian @Independent @Telegraph @newscientist @airqualitynews bbc.com/news/uk-englan…
Nitrogen dioxide is a result of all carbon combustion processes. Including smoky coal burning. @RichardbrutonTD @declancarty @Hulerontheditch @AsthmaIreland @timmydooley @ian_lumley @irishexaminer irishexaminer.com/breakingnews/i…

‘The first national Clean Air Strategy, to be published later this year, would also address problems arising in relation to harmful emissions from a range of sources’ How many more times will this be promised! irishtimes.com/news/environme…
If further monitoring confirms that the EU limit values of NO2 have been exceeded, local authorities in #Dublin and its suburbs will be legally required to prepare air quality action plans to address the causes and provide solutions in the affected areas.epa.ie/newsandevents/…
@JohnSodeau And probably Limerick / Galway / Waterford..... the list goes on!
If Cork City had any road side air monitoring equipment suitable to measure nitrogen dioxide then conclusions may have been similar. But it doesn’t.
The Environmental Protection Agency says it now has clear evidence suggesting Nitrogen Dioxide is exceeding long-term EU statutory safe limits in many areas of Dublin. Dublin traffic pollution poses public health risk - EPA via @RTENewsNow rte.ie/news/ireland/2…
CRACLab have offered to help and advise on several occasions. The Council need to be much more active in monitoring the quality of the air in the city so that citizens of Cork are informed of pollution levels.@Darragh_Ber @OpinionLine96
Nitrogen dioxide only monitored at 2 locations in Cork. UCC campus and South Link Road. Roadside monitoring is desperately needed in Cork city. Why don't Cork city council get things moving? That’s what @johnwenger9 and @JohnSodeau think m.independent.ie/irish-news/dan…
@LEZCork @AnTaisce Hi, our @GLOBEProgram has conducted air quality testing at schools this year: globe.gov/web/ireland/ho… This is def something we are interested in; can't offer a definite answer on funds right now but will investigate. Thanks for sharing!
